I was amazed by how some schools had 30, 40 and even 50 people show up to chalk, teachers asked and their administrations took on the project together, kindness trees were popping up everywhere, there just seemed to be a special togetherness this year. The pictures are still pouring in and you can check some of them out at the Guerrilla Goodness Flickr Pool. You can also e-mail me with your photos at patience@kindnessgirl.com. Be sure to let us know if you participated so we can add your kindness work to the ever-growing list.

There’s a suicide-prevention project for bullied gay & lesbian youth very similar to this. It started in 2005 at a New Jersey college and has grown into a national movement. It’s good to see so many people using graffiti for love. http://chalkmessages.org
